A Quality Most Desired

Among tlie qualittes most to be tieSiired in a young gWs chajracter is a high eemse oí honor. I -wish.' I could impresa an every reader the nesdof being alwaye above every thing petty or small, so that one would not íor a single moment ever be tempted vó do a mean or underh-and tliing, to speak unkindly af a friend, or to repeat a conversation wliich was cotn'fidential. It may tappen to you, for instance td be v is i t ing in Diie home ol a relative or friend, 'Whiare there may be u. little friction at thie taWe, o-r where some anxiety arises a bout the course of a uiember of the family. hornatter witkat you se or hear, rn buch circu'mstamces you are bound, if 'ii are aai bamorable person, to be silent about it, neither making eomments nor looTting as if you could teil sometfhdms if you ohose, mor in any way alludiug to what is unpleasaat, at a-ny future tim. A gueat in a Jiome oannot be too cairëiul to guard the good name of tihose under lts roof, for it is an Oi-omor to be tt guest in tlie first place, amd hooxor is demanded in return. Again, a mice seoise of honor in mattere comnected with money is very important. PöÜy is treasurer of a society, aud bas 'the care of the funde. Stoe must never for an instant, or ín aa wmergency, lend these funds to ofher pecuple or borrow them for her öwn use. I knew a girl-Polly was her name, by the way- who was induced, being treasurer oí a certain guild, to lend her brother, for one day, tih-e money Bhe hald in her care. TBhe broifcher was ölder than Polly, and a very persuasive person. Hesaid: ''Why should you Jietitate? I'll bring it back to you to-night, ttnd it will obliige me very much if I cantake that fifty dollars and pay u bill I owe before noon to-day." Tollish Bolly permitted her scruples to be overruled. line money was not brought back, vnd but for her father's kindness in making it good, she would have been disgraced as a .lishonest treasurer. She told me long afterwards th,a,t the lesson had been burned in on her mind never to take. liberties witJh money which she held ia trust.- Harper's Round Table.
